Dear Sir --

So far as I have heard opinions expressed among the members of the legislature in
relation to the new design, they have been highly commendatory -- All seem pleased
with it, & so far as I can judge, the work thus far on the House gives
general satisfaction, & as yet I have seen no symptoms of opposition to the
necessary appropriation--neither do I believe there will be much --

The tinted copies of the perspective of which you speak, I suppose I have,
though they are but little changed from the plain ones -- I will send you one as you
request --
